In its second year after being moved from the traditional Saturday after Thanksgiving -- a switch forced by Thanksgiving-weekend scheduling of the Ohio State-Michigan football game -- Toledo's Holiday Parade drew about 20,000 to 25,000 spectators today, organizers said.

The event, co-sponsored by Taylor Cadillac and The Blade, was led by the Scott High School marching band and then Olympic high-jump silver medalist Erik Kynard, Jr., who served as the parade's co-grand marshal.
